Take off for police drones air force: Remote-controlled 'flying squad' to chase criminals and hunt for missing people

The first 24-hour police drone unit is to be launched, amid fears that forces may have to rely on them because of falling officer numbers.
The ‘flying squad’ will pursue suspects, find missing people and help solve murders. Assistant Chief Constable Steve Barry, national spokesman on drones, predicted forces across Britain would soon be using them as they are cheaper than helicopters and can perform some duties of bobbies on the beat.
But the move has prompted privacy concerns and warnings that the technology should ‘never be an excuse to cut officers’.
Devon and Cornwall Police has advertised for a drone manager to lead its new dedicated unit, which will be launched in the summer and shared with Dorset.

This is where we are heading. Just think if they could arm the drones? They could identify people, release microscopic drones on yo ass, stalk you. Then have something like this robot teamed up with it.

Amazon CEO and fifth richest person in the world Jeff Bezos got behind the wheel (well, dual joysticks) of the bot at the retailing giant’s annual robotics conference. He tweeted out the picture above earlier this morning saying, “I just got to pilot an awesome (and huge) robot thanks to Hankook Mirae Technology.” Other conference attendees videoed the event, and Bezos can be seen waving around the robot’s arms and asking: “Why do I feel so much like Sigourney Weaver?” Reports that Bezos then told the crowd to “bow down before your new king and master, Metal Jeff” are unsubstantiated. link to image: http://lunaticoutpost.com/smilies/srjceahd.gifhttp://www.theverge.com/2017/3/20/149796...conference

I'd say they're going to implement this nation wide in all major cities. They said pretty much the same thing as the Brit article...

Lea continues, "UAS have the capability to gather and record information much more efficiently and thoroughly than any person. The ultimate goal is to use the small UAS for critical life-saving efforts, such as locating missing persons and monitoring incidents where a hazardous condition exists. The UAS can also be used to take aerial photos of crime scenes, fire scenes, and traffic accidents, providing a perspective that could be invaluable to investigators."

If you know the drone frequency, it can be jammed or over ridden. If you have a higher powered transmitter, and drone control capability, it's possible to 'take control' of them and fly them to where you want to take them.

So now we've gone from Superman flying over our cities, guarding them, to Radio Shack stuff....

Making LOP Great again since 06-07-2013!

Russian President Vladimir Putin presented Tillerson with the Order of Friendship.

It's a great year for kleptocratic regimes, oligarchies, plutocracies and autocratic hell holes.
